Mason a solid addition to practice squad

The Ravens signed former Redskins running back Marcus Mason to the practice squad.

It doesn't sound like a big deal, but the kid was impressive during minicamp. He ran hard, showed power and elusiveness.

With starting running back Willis McGahee still struggling with the knee injury, the Ravens might be forced to play Mason, who was originally signed by the Redskins in May of 2007.

I saw the kid play. He's a good pick-up
